Best "bass-head" headphones with balanced sound
Don't tell me to use the search function. I've been wracking my brain going through threads and I have not come up with an answer to what I am looking for. I'm looking for headphones that are bass heavy with good quality bass that are as close to balanced as possible. I realize that what I ask...- KingofWisdom

Worst headphones you've ever bought
Not counting Skullcandy ear buds or random headsets from Best Buy, I'd say Samson SR950s. They sound fine for the price, it's just everything beyond the sound quality that I can't stand. The ear pads (make too much noise), the design (uncomfortable self-adjusting headband that won't stay in...- KingofWisdom

The BEST-LOOKING Headphones
Didn't like the AKG K550's much, but they definitely look nice. These aren't half bad either, imo.- KingofWisdom

The AKG K550 Impressions and Discussion Thread!
I've had the AKG K550s for just over a year now. I haven't had any issues with the headphones themselves, like others, it's the pads that have been bothering me. The pads have tears in them, and when I plop them onto my head, they're noisy for a few seconds as they reorient themselves and settle...- KingofWisdom

How do you guys buy your music?
I prefer physical copies if they're available. I buy those online from wherever I can. If I need to buy it digitally, whether that be from Amazon or iTunes, I'll do that too.- KingofWisdom

Fiio E6 output jack
It does take a bit of force for me. It's usually easier if I plug it in with a spinning motion.- KingofWisdom

Fiio E 6 newby
Usually I'll use the E6 for about 6-7 hours then throw it on the charger. When it's plugged in and in use, I get noticeable interference and it can get pretty bad.- KingofWisdom

Better, louder amp than the Fiio E6?
I'm using AKG K550 headphones, and with the E6 it's usually plenty loud, except in certain instances. For example, Netflix on both my phone and PS Vita just isn't loud enough, so I'd like something that can get louder. Budget is around $100, but I'd pay more if it's absolutely necessary. Anyone...- KingofWisdom

Remove 1/8" adapter from headphone?
Glad I know how to take it off now. Though, it's really firm on there. Haven't been able to take it off yet. Edit: Got if off! Thanks, fellow Head-Fi'ers! Love you guys.- KingofWisdom

Remove 1/8" adapter from headphone?
Okay, so I recently bought the AKG K550 off eBay and received it today. The plug comes with a 1/8" adapter already attached, but I want to take that off and have no idea how to do so. Clearly this is my first foray into higher quality 'phones. There were no such instructions on or in the box...- KingofWisdom
